    Haha - I like this one! This is why being genuine helps (doesn't mean revealing all, but it does mean not pretending one's life or self is perfect).

    It's interesting that a lot of people are unaware that they act just like their parents. Cycles are always repeated.

    That reminds me of the time I was doing an intake appointment with my psychiatrist and my mom just turns to me and says, "Let's not get sent to a mental hospital, ok?"

    I was doing a wheelchair ramp at a mental health house. I was waiting in the office for the director. I spy the book "The Borderline Personality". After he explained it to me I realized it was describing the girl I was dating right down to her yin-yang ring.

    That kinda happens when you are so trained to bury your feelings for fear of being dismissed or hurting someone else.

    This is a movie that's stood the test of time. Wonderful adaptation of Emma for the GenX generation.

    Sharing a laugh about such a serious topic might sound strange, but it actually makes people more comfortable. Laughing together about shared experiences can ease the heaviness and create a safe space for open conversations.

    Even therapists are on board! “I love mental health memes,” said therapist Greta MacMillan in a Simple Practice Monarch article. She even shares memes with her clients because they’re a fun and accessible way to spread important information. 

    So, which one of these posts did you find the most relatable, hilarious—or maybe both? Share this with a friend who could use a laugh and let them know they’re not alone.

    The client came for your educated wisdom, not your personal feelings. That's the price of being an expert.

    I'd argue that it's your job to help clients face themselves. ' Feeling better' is optional

    You don't get better just by looking in a mirror, the mirror has to talk back. In a different, more informed voice
